what I wish for
and what I imagine
may they adhere
to my principle.
may every waking moment
be dedicated to such
and rise again
should I fall.

Effort
give it all you’ve got each moment
live each moment with wide eyes
breath in the air in clear mind.
once you let your attention go,
time will start to fly like a kite,
and when you open your eyes,
you, and the world, has already changed.
live the moment.
remember the moment.

Worth
was it worth it?
we explore the world
looking for people
I sometimes wonder
if it was worthwhile in the end.
do you keep walking into the forest
hoping the forks of the roads
meet each other in the end
or do you venture out
and seek the people?
I wonder
I wonder

Okay
it’s okay to be not okay.
your heart is swelling with tears,
and recognize it is there.
remember the loving moments
where you basked in happiness.
remember all the grace you received.
it’s okay.
it’ll be alright.

Pity
cry.
your swelling river
will overflow your dam.
watch.
watch it bleed.
do not blame the weather,
the trees, or the earth.
accept them.
when the bleeding stops,
walk.
no matter how painful it is,
it is the source of joy.
perhaps the only one.
in the end,
the sun will rise.
it will always rise.
and you will be ready to answer it.

Sleep
I need sleep
yet the dream
keeps me awake.
yet I know:
keep your head cool
as your heart heats up

Judge
instinctively,
my jaws tighten,
my fists clench,
my thoughts start racing.
as if to push a racing train to a halt,
I tell myself:
I am not the one to judge.
yet the screeching animosity does not stop,
rather slowly pressurize for an explosion.
if humans are not perfect,
why strive for such perfection?
I’d like to know I did the right thing
and live and love without regret.

Try
give it a try
you won’t know what you wanted
unless you give it a try
once you open your eyes
once you break through your fear
you will start to breath
life of your dreams.

Connections
it cannot be forced,
but slowly, smoothly, and shyly,
weaved into a strong fabric
via intricate rituals and ceremonies
warmth and resilience born from such
lasts a lifetime.

Habit
how do I stop watching YouTube?
it’s an invisible string
hooking my weakest points
wrapping them into an addiction.
how do I get out of this?
